Léon, The Professional (1994)

Mathilda (Natalie Portman), a twelve-year old New York girl, is living an undesirable life among her half-family.
Her father stores drugs for two-faced cop Norman Stansfield (Gary Oldman). Only her little brother keeps Mathilda from breaking apart. One day, Stansfield and his team take
cruel revenge on her father for stretching the drugs a little, thus killing the whole family. Only Mathilda, who was out shopping, survives by finding shelter
in Léon's apartment in the moment of highest need. Soon, she finds out about the strange neighbour's unusual profession - killing - and desperately seeks his
help in taking revenge for her little brother. Léon (Jean Reno), who is completely unexperienced in fatherly tasks, and in friendships, does his best to keep Mathilda out
of trouble - unsuccessfully. Now, the conflict btw a killer, who slowly discovers his abilities to live, to feel, to love and a corrupt police officer,
who does anything in his might to get rid of an eye witness, arises to unmeasurable proportions - all for the sake of a little twelve-year old girl, who has nearly nothing to lose.

otsoNY Comments: In the late 1990s, the grocery store on the corner of East 97th Street and Park was still open for business and trading as a
convenience store. In 2015, it has since closed down.
